Mallory: Transparent TCP and UDP proxy tool

Mallory is a transparent TCP and UDP proxy.It can be used to get at those hard to intercept network streams,assess those tricky mobile web applications, or maybe just pull a prank on your friend.

Mallory is,what to say it is bit of a pain to install if your trying to run the setup other than ubuntu.

List of Dependency for mallory:

  • sudo apt-get install mercurial
  • sudo apt-get install python-pyasn1
  • sudo apt-get install python-netfilter
  • sudo apt-get install libnetfilter-conntrack-dev
  • sudo apt-get install python2.6-dev
  • sudo apt-get install python-setuptools
  • sudo easy_install pynetfilter_conntrack
  • sudo apt-get install netfilter-extensions-source
  • sudo apt-get install libnetfilter-conntrack3-dbg
  • sudo apt-get install python-paramiko
  • sudo apt-get install python-imaging


The goal is to man in the middle traffic for testing purposes. The ideal setup for Mallory is to have a “LAN” or “Victim” network that Mallory acts as the gateway for. This can be configured within a virtal machine environment using host only network interfaces. The victim virtual machines then configures the Mallory machine as the gateway by manually setting its gateway. The gateway machine will have at least one WAN interface that grants Internet access. The victim network then uses the Mallory gateway to route traffic.
